Furthermore, the time schedule posted on the University website is often inconsistent. Hence, providing the accurate bus arrival time is important as it can reduce waiting time at bus stops as well as to decide on the travel plan. The proposed shuttle bus tracker app aims to minimize waiting time by incorporating features that allows commuters to know the location of the bus in real-time, to make query about the arrival time of the bus as well as to provide real-time traffic update about the shuttle bus routes. The app calculates the bus arrival time by getting the location of the bus chosen and the bus stop then passing their

  ExploringRisk-Based Approaches for ISO/RTO Asset Managers- codeshoppy In competitive power markets, the independent system operator (ISO/RTO) manages assets and obligations on behalf of owners   to meet ISO/RTO goals of reliability, equal access, and market efficiency. Merchant generators make unit commitment decisions, transmission operators receive a regulated payment for trans- mission assets operated by the ISO/RTO asset manager. Load is scheduled with the ISO/RTO as either price responsive or price taking. As asset managers, the ISO/RTO can benefit from a menu of approaches introduced to identify, measure and manage risks in power systems under uncertain economic conditions. Since com- petitive markets have introduced new roles for existing participants and new participants to the industry, appetite for these new tools has never been higher. However, applying these new tools has not been without difficulty. In this paper, t
